Cateva dintre reguli:
Despre haine:
– No satin dresses. No one looks good in satin dresses unless it’s from Betsey Johnson [daca si rochiile de la Betsey Johnson sunt o culme a bunului gust…] or Dolce & Gabbana, you weigh less than 130 pounds, have three pairs of Spanx on and it’s New Years Eve.
– No sleeveless dresses – unless you have really good arms
– No muffin tops
Despre pantofi:
– Booties ok if you can pull them off, aka probably not.
– Yes to nice flats: Tory Burch, etc. More evening-ish, understated, patent leather good. I’m thinking mid-height Mary Jane heels, or mid-height chunky Kate Spade.
– No tacky/cheapo/pleather shoes. Don’t mess with me
Deaspre ingrijire si machiaj:
– No mustaches or chapped lips.
– Blush is not optional.
– Hair must be freshly colored
– No sloppy buns/ponytails
– You best have a mani/pedi when you get to Ithaca.
Despre accesorii:
– I expect everyone to be wearing accessories.
– No watches with timers or any kind of Indiglo light are allowed. I will have the time to keep you informed, so unless your watch is a piece of jewelry, you don’t need it. Put on a bangle.
– I will not tolerate any gross plastic shizzzz.
– I love things on wrists and I demand earrings if your ears are pierced.
Partea amuzanta in toata povestea asta e ca tipele astea au un tupeu nebun sa impuna astfel de restrictii cand ele arata asa (da, le-am cautat pe Google, eram curioasa cat de perfecte sunt :P). De exemplu, daca isi respectau regula cu “No sleeveless dresses – unless you have really good arms”, cred ca toate ar fi fost nevoite sa-si schimbe rochiile. I’m just saying. 🙂
Partea trista e ca in secolul XXI, intr-o epoca de maxima emancipare a femeii, tinere de la o Universitate din Ivy League (vorbim de crema universitara americana aici!) ar accepta sa se supuna acestor reguli stupide, opresive si de turma, din simpla dorinta de a fi acceptate. In plus, in ciuda unei foarte bune impresii despre sine (pe care sunt sigura ca membrele Pi Beta Phi o nutresc), fetele astea n-au nici cea mai vaga idee despre ce inseamna stilul vestimentar. Ele cred, probabil, ca imbracand si accesorizand un card de femei dupa niste norme fixe, le introduc intr-un club de stil exclusivist, dar nu fac decat sa le priveze de orice urma de personalitate, creativitate si stil personal.
Si, ca sa nu fiu singura care se distreaza, v-am atasat tot ghidul mai jos. Enjoy! 🙂

=)) Sick, I tell you! Ce mi-a placut cel mai mult a fost folosirea frecventa a expresiei “Don’t mess with me!” Mi-a intrat in vocabular 🙂

Leah,
Replica mea favorita e cea care deschide sectiunea de Hair, Makeup & Hands: “These are life lessons so read carefully.” :))
daninho,
🙂 Sunt convinsa ca si altii s-ar putea gandi la asa ceva, dar in nicio alta cultura n-ar prinde atat de bine.
